Why doesn't the Mark'o have Missile pods?

To be honest I would drop all the Broadsides from the CAD and take another FBSC. Given you have so little mobile scoring I wonder if just going triple FBSC would achieve want you want best?

I hope you face an AV14 Guard tank wall.

Yeah, some DS-ing fusion suits would help you out against heavy armour, knights and artillery. I'd get three solo ones in your elites at the expense of some broadsides (you appear to have that niche well covered lol)

Hm. It's only really AV 14 that's a problem though... And the army really needs the markerlight support so that you can move the broadsides and then buff their shooting back up to a decent level. Hence all the marker drones and the Tetras. And I think if you place them right, armies will be more worried about shooting the broadsides than the tetras...

In the UK, most tournaments are still 2 source...
